Need clarification on how recharges work

[SVK]

@pothi why not recharge with big amount like 1000?
510 recharge gives 540 balance.
710 recharge gives 750 balance.

Is that for airtel or all players?

@SVK are you sure? because I have both dish tv and airtel and in dishtv I get what I pay not a penny extra/

@Sushubh @anmolbhard004
Its for Airtel DTH. I always recharge through Airtel Thanks App with 710. I get 710 + 40 bonus.

I wasn't aware of both recharges. I also recharged using Amazon Pay that offered some cashbacks (one-off). I will give one of those a try next time.

@SVK It worked. Thanks.

I did 510 top-up. Got 535 in DTH account. Basically, 25 extra. Little less than 5% is fair enough.

This time, I didn't go with 710, as there was already some balance in the account and I didn't know how much is charged per day. With the recent recharge, I found that the current choice of channels take Rs.11 per day appr. So, I will go with 710 top-up next time as it offers better value.

Update: Rs.710 top-up added Rs.40 to the main account. Thanks.
